Roommate Allegedly Tried to Kill Woman Because She Ate His Cookies for Breakfast

Allen Hall is being held on charges of attempted murder, all because of some Chips Ahoy.

Allen Hall, 23, is being held on charges of attempted murder after allegedly attacking his unnamed roommate when she ate three of his cookies for breakfast [via Gawker].

When the woman told Hall she'd eaten three of his cookies for breakfast, because that's just how she rolls, Hall reportedly became infuriated and threatened to kill her. If you're not sure whether or not he was overreacting, please be aware that these are Chips Ahoy cookies we're talking about; they weren't even homemade. Hall's roommate, being a pretty rational human being, didn't think Hall was serious about the death threats, so she told him if he's going to kill her over cookies, "go ahead."

That's when Hall reportedly burst into the bathroom and began strangling her, but luckily the woman's husband and their landlady showed up in time to pull Hall off her before calling the police. The woman is pretty certain Hall actually would've killed her if he wasn't stopped.
